What The...

I think the only answer that one could give to that would be "Motorbike? What motorbike ? "

Or better yet, "Motorbike, nah the push bike over there"

I stopped in a a petrol station on my way home not too long ago. Put the $8 of petrol in that I needed, walk in to pay wearing my helmet, jacket, gloves. Say to the man behind the counter "Pump 4" and he says to me...."The motorbike?"....


Uh.....yeah.

Yeah i get it all the time... Walk into petrol station, stop outside the door to remove helmet and observe the attendant checking out my bike...
Walk up and he asks me: Which pump? Ummmmmm

Just as an aside is it ok to walk into a petrol station at night with a helmet still on??? Cos i am just too lazy sometimes to take it off.

And also why does everyone who doesn't ride honda's hate them???
Is it just that some people hear other people say they hate them and decide that its cool to hate honda's? Or is it something more mysterious? (X-files music plays somewhere in background)

It's an obvious case of 'ask a stupid question, get a stoopid answer', but once you realised she believed you you should have done the right thing and apologised for only joking with her...oh well, maybe next time she serves you she'll see you roll on up on your bike and give you a good clip round the ear lol.

I agree, now there is a chance that this lady will say to her friends "Shit those motorbike riders are SO full of shit, they're all wankers"

Well done, you've only set-back the publics perception of motorcyclists by 30 years.

During my lunch break I rode down to the local chemist to get some throat lozenges. When I walked in, the lady behind the counter asked do I ride a bike? With helmet in hand gloves still on, and wearin a riding jacket, I felt the answer was slightly obvious. However feeling mischievous I replied saying I don’t ride but drive the Toyota corolla parked out front . She asked about the helmet, to which I replied I drive fast, and don’t want to hurt my head if I crash. To my amassment she actually believed me… ….I strolled out smirking, and burst into laughter outside, I wobbled back to work laughing all the way.

You guys ever had anything like this happen to you?

whenever i remember (when i have to drive a cage), i put my gloves and helmet on.. screw having people seeing your whole face when driving a cage.. don't want anyone to recognize me

People's opinions differ on this, but with me it all depends on whether or not they have one of those 'do not wear helmet stickers' on or next to the main doors.

And also why does everyone who doesn't ride honda's hate them??? Is it just that some people hear other people say they hate them and decide that its cool to hate honda's? Or is it something more mysterious?

One word - jealousy!

My personal favorite:
Many, many years ago, I was lying on the road after an "incident" and some punter came up and asked "Had an accident?"

If I had been firing on all cylinders I could have replied "No thanks, just had one"
